What If an Apple Tree Had Imposter Syndrome? A Lesson in Sharing Your Gifts.

I took a walk in nature to seek inspiration, and when I stopped in front of an ordinary apple tree, I had a thought.
Imagine if this tree decided to defy its natural purpose and instead held the idea of an apple inside. What if it was afraid of how it might look with fruit hanging from its branches? What would the other tall trees think of this? What if no one picked its apples, and the fruit simply fell to the ground and rotted?
There are many reasons why the tree should try to fit in with the rest and avoid bearing fruit, but our beloved apple tree honored its intended purpose. The tree offered its gift, but we’ve transformed it into so much more, including pie, sauce, juice, cider, calculus, and even a phone.
Don’t keep your talents and ideas to yourself. The world needs you to share what you’re holding inside. Share your apples because you never know what they’ll be come.
